"Soros" the uniter

I never knew how truly dispicable this man is, it's one thing to do regrettable things as a child to survive, but to have no remorse whatsoever is demented. Too bad you refuse to read my links now PB, you might learn something from this. I agree with what you said awhile back though, you do do better when you stay on recieve instead of transmit, you've seemed somewhat frazzled lately...............go ahead and sneak a peek though, no one will know.

willy, your move to smear George Soros here is one of the slimiest, most odious things I've ever seen on these boards. Congratulations.

I'm putting myself in a barely teen Soros' shoes here. Being a Jew in Hungary, and given the choice between collaborating with occupiers and being hauled off in chains, to some camp, I would have made nice with my oppressors. So would most other people. Beats the hell out of being a slave. And the urge to survive (evident in humans since before the wheel was invented) is extremely strong. Almost everyone wants freedom.

And when Soros was "collaborating", most of the world (including him) had no idea that a train ride to a detention camp was a one way ticket to death. His reaction might have been different then.

And its interesting to note that not a single Hungarian family, or surviving relative has accused Soros of sending them to "the camps".

Plus, he was fourteen years old when he was passing out eviction notices. FOURTEEN. Kind of young to absorb and digest the horrors the Nazis were REALLY up to. And what would YOU have done if you knew that "saying no" would mean you and your family would be deported?

Relevant quote:

"Yeah, I'm hardly going to blame anyone, least of all a 14-year-old kid, for doing what he had to do to stay alive. If it could be shown that he was actually betraying others, turning them over to the Nazis to save his own skin, that would be different, but it doesn't sound like that was the case. Calling him a "collaborator" is a ludicrous exaggeration -- but then, it's Ann Coulter, so it's pretty much par for the course. She'd probably have called Simon Wiesenthal a Nazi collaborator if he'd written a check to the Democratic Party at some point." - E. Q. Taft.

Actually Willy, I shouldn't be surprised at your BS slinging. For decades, the wingnuts in the GOP have delighted in hurling patently false excrement at adversaries. Going back to Watergate; to the theft of Jimmy Carter's debate preparation book prior to his meeting with Ronald Reagan in 1980, to the despicable cold calls in South Carolina by GOP operatives in 1980insisting that George Bush rival John McCain that McCain fathered illegitimate Children, promoted homosexuality and had a drug-addict wife. The GOP's repudiation of honesty and fair play knows no bounds.

I would never vote for the GOP because they don't know the meanings of such words as "truth", and "fair play"

"it's one thing to do regrettable things as a child to survive, but to have no remorse whatsoever is demented"........ but the article really isn't about that either, it's about the his greed as an adult, both for money and power.

Regardless of his past life and any altruistic history, he has thrown himself into politics with his support of liberal programs and candidates. And we all know that politics is as bad as the Roman arenas. Fodder for the mayhem and blood spilling.
